Scout report
Kim Dae-Won is a 29-year-old central midfielder at Gangwon FC, rated 27.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 70th of 144 on scout potential in the K League 1. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (36% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.76 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Dae-Won.
Judged on this season alone, Dae-Won graded 17 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 8% of the 27 central midfielders in the K League 1, on 1 goal, 3 assists and 1.755 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 20 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 15th of 27 of the 27 central midfielders in the K League 1. At 29 Dae-Won is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.7 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Gangwon FC finished 5th of 6 · a relegation-threatened side
1.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (5th of 6) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.29 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 36% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.76 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 27.3, Dae-Won carries the 15th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the K League 1 of 27, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Gangwon FC finished 5th of 6) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
